Nancy indicated even in regard to the B-2 are, there has always been confusion as to where Arden Hills and Shoreview boundaries are located. Mayor Harpstead requested to have Mr. Hames design what a $10,000 sign would appear like so the committee would have an idea. Assistant City Administrator Simon noted there would be a cost involved for Mr. Hames' time in designing more draft designs and wondered if the City wanted to spend for this item. The Mayor suggested different type of signs could be required depending on the area they are located, but thought they should all have a consistent look. Chair Yon Holtum proposed waiting for the B-2 Steering Committee to develop the B-2 plan and ask them to discuss signage as well. Assistant City Administrator Simon said he would like to go back to Mr. Hames with a set of parameters to base his designs off of and would wait for suggestions from the B-2 Steering Committee.

After this, he would then go to Mr. Hames for design mock ups. Rob suggested the group work on pnontIzmg possible sign locations.
